It is a thick one sided disc the back has VICTOR embossed in big letters.

This is a studio disc / radio / transcription used for in theater & radio promotion of the 1932 movie THE BIG BROADCAST.  from the personal library of Nat Finston who was the Orchestra conductor on & general Music Director for films from Paramount & MGM between 1928 & 1945. (He is also on this record) It is from his daughter Beatrix Padway's estate.

THIS DISC IS A PROMOTIONAL RECORDING USED FOR RADIO AND IN THEATRE PROMOTION OF THE BIG BROADCAST. BING CROSBY DOES A COMEDY SCHTICK WITH STUART ERWIN ON THE 1ST HALF OF THE DISC AND THEN SINGS HERE LIES LOVE.

Paramount made the first of its Big Broadcast films, the first and best of them. This first one gave Bing Crosby his first role in a feature film, previously he had done guest appearances and also short subjects for Mack Sennett. Not wanting to mislead anyone about who was numero uno in this film, Paramount had him play a radio crooner named Bing Crosby.


Of course I combine auctions for cheapest shipping.
